[No System] [Techno-Cultivation] [Energy Apocalypse] [Ascension Through the Flesh] [Erlang, the Manifest Sage] [Eight-Nine Arcane Art]
With energy depleted, civilization plunged into deep darkness. Money and power carved cold chasms between the classes, grinding humanity into dust across the wasteland.
Lin Kong, a gifted mechanic struggling to survive among the rusting gears of the outer district, spent day and night piecing together the energy circuits left in the ruins, yet could never piece together a future of his own.
Until one day, an upheaval beyond space and time sent a glimmer from the age of myth into his sea of consciousness
The inheritance of Erlang, the Manifest Sage, awakened the Eight-Nine Arcane Art.
From then on, steel and flesh resonated, while code and talismans intertwined.
He used mechanical craft to decipher the arcane art, and the powers of cultivation to rebuild technology.
As the weapons of ordinary people shattered in the cataclysm, his body became an indestructible weapon. As the old order rotted in its greed, his very existence became the new law.
"These so-called ranks, these so-called chasms of the apocalypse..."
"Are nothing but shackles, waiting for me to ascend through the flesh and crush them with my own hands."
